UPDATING THE SOFTWARE

Quaveratos shipped after November 16, 2018 should be loaded with the latest MIDI-enabled software, 
version 2.3.6 or higher. If you are modding an older unit, you will need to update the software. To 
verify the software version on your pedal, do the following:

1.  Power off the Quaverato.

2.  Press and hold down the TAP switch. Power it back up.

3.  Continue to hold the TAP switch for a few seconds. The TAP LED will blink out the three-digit 

version number.

If it turns out you have to update the software, do the following:

1.  Download the 

ZDL Updater

 program from our website (www.zeppelindesignlabs.com) and install 

it on your PC (sorry, neither MacOS nor Linux is supported at this time). Run the Updater and 
click the “?” to open the Help file. Read this carefully to complete the installation.

2.  Plug in the 6-pin ribbon cable header from the USBTinyISP into your Quaverato as in the picture 

(1).  Please note the orientation of the ribbon cable on the Quaverato’s ISP header: pin 1 is 
closest to the white dot on the PCB (3,4).
